Xdebug + PHPStorm for PHP 7 on Alpine Linux
Raw
xdebug_alpine.md

First, install the Xdebug package from the testing repository.

$ apk add php7-xdebug --repository http://dl-3.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing/

Now edit the /etc/php7/php.ini file and add the following to the end of it:

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php7/modules/xdebug.so
xdebug.coverage_enable=0 
xdebug.remote_enable=1      
xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
xdebug.remote_log=/tmp/xdebug.log
xdebug.remote_autostart=true

With everything in place, we're ready to restart the server.

$ nginx -s reload
$ /etc/init.d/php-fpm restart

At this point, in PHPStorm, click "Run > Start Listening for PHP Debug Connections", and then "Run > Break at first line in PHP Scripts".

Now reload the site in the browser, making sure to use the port that goes directly to the server, which is sometimes :8080 instead of :80, and you should see the debugger fire up.
